@waltraud see Hakea decurrens subsp. decurrens (Bushy Needlewood) for comparison with H. decurrens subsp decurrens

Sorry Barb, I'm confused by your suggestion to compare H. decurrens subsp decurrens with H. decurrens subsp decurrens. Plus the record of the Ainslie specimen shows fruits. So what should I compare?

Because this sighting is H. sericea and if you look at link you will see why I changed it from what it was wrongly identified as. The open fruits are needed for ID.
